Carlos Domingo

Carlos Domingo is a technology entrepreneur whose public profile is defined by work at the intersection of finance, telecommunications and blockchain. Before taking a leading role in tokenisation, he spent much of his career in technology and telecom environments where he worked on developer programmes, digital platforms and innovation initiatives. That background exposed him to the operational and regulatory complexity of large, highly regulated industries and informed his later focus on applying distributed ledger technology to capital markets.

Domingo has combined operational leadership with advocacy and public speaking on topics around tokenisation, digital assets and compliant market infrastructure. Rather than being solely a technologist, his professional path has emphasised building businesses that operate with regulatory constraints in mind and engaging with policymakers, financial institutions and industry groups to advance workable frameworks for digital securities.

Domingo co‑founded Securitize and serves as its chief executive, leading the company’s efforts to provide an end‑to‑end platform for issuing, managing and trading tokenised securities. Securitize positions itself as a bridge between traditional capital markets and the emerging world of digital assets, offering tools for issuance, compliance, investor onboarding and secondary market trading. Under his leadership the company has emphasised regulatory compliance and interoperability with established financial infrastructure, aiming to enable regulated institutions to engage with tokenised products.

Beyond Securitize, Domingo is involved in venture activity focused on tokenised finance. He is a managing director at Spice VC, a fund that invests in projects and companies building tokenised financial products and infrastructure. In these roles he has been a visible proponent of security tokens as a way to represent ownership and rights in a variety of asset classes, from private equity and real estate to funds and alternative investments, while highlighting the need for clear regulatory guardrails.

Domingo’s stated vision centres on modernising capital markets by using tokenisation to improve liquidity, reduce frictions and broaden access to otherwise illiquid assets. He frequently discusses how compliant token standards, robust identity and custody arrangements, and market infrastructure integrations are prerequisites for institutional adoption. His public remarks and interviews commonly stress that technology alone is not sufficient; legal, regulatory and operational frameworks must evolve in concert to realise the promise of digital securities.

In recent years he has focused on scaling token issuance and secondary market capabilities, advancing partnerships with financial institutions, exchanges and custodians, and supporting a new generation of startups through venture activity. While he remains a prominent voice in the tokenisation community, he also engages with regulators and industry consortia to encourage pragmatic approaches to oversight that balance investor protection with innovation. His work continues to highlight practical pathways for bringing real‑world assets onto blockchain‑based systems within existing legal structures.
